MOLD Town Council have joined a campaign to have old county names removed from the post office address file.

Many people across Flintshire are still receiving mail addressed to Clwyd.

Mold Town councillor, Chris Bithell said: “When people in Flintshire type their addresses into online websites such as Gocompare.com and others like it, Flintshire doesn’t seem to exist, Clwyd comes up instead.

“It’s ridiculous, there’s no such place as Clwyd anymore, and there hasn’t been since 1996.

“A lot of Welsh counties haven't existed for more than a decade, but it seems that no-one told the post office!”
